I have 3 things to say about this:
1) Is this for real!
2) WHY OH WHY did I not make sure to be in Athens for this?!? SOOOO excited for tonight.
STAND UP AND CHEER
3) If real, how cool would it have been to orchestrate a "black out" in Pedan tonight?

Are YOU for real? These are the most hideous things since my dad's wedding tuxedo.

The Twitter mockery is loud and strong at these embarrassing unis.

I'm liking the way we look in them so far.

We look tough, sleek and fully operational...

For those hating on the uniforms, show some respect. They are in honor of Williamson.

That's OK, you are allowed to be wrong once in a while.

Oh, yeah, because that's totally obvious and the Russell video that announced the uniforms says that.

Except neither of those things are true.

No way we could have afforded that, don't have a Nike or Under Armour to pick up the tab for that.

That's really cool! I thought it was just a marketing ploy. That's the residue of living in our times... thinking everything has ulterior motives.

Did Russell offer them up for free? That's classy if they did it. Or if it was through donor(s), kudos to them!

It's nice to have a community, be it citizens, alumni, sponsors/business partners, that comes together and helps in tough times.

I loved the look.  Something new and exciting!!  25 years ago Ohio almost went all black, but AD vetoed the move.  Finally it has happened.  Nice

Those uniforms are dope and we should wear them frequently.

And for not having a deal for someone else to pay the bill.....it's coming.

I couldn't care less what Twitter is saying, I thought the uniforms were fun and interesting.  I bet they're also great for recruiting.  With the way we performed tonight, I hope we had a number of recruits in attendance.

Tettleton said on the post game interview with Rich and Rob that the team was kept out of the locker room until they had a pegame meeting and they played the video for the players and they all went crazy with excitement. He said there were guys with tears in their eyes when they got to the locker room because they were so excited and fired up about the unis. Like a bunch of kids on xmas morning.

If the unis got the team even more fired up then I say they look pretty good to me too.

Burke is just wrong on this one.  The unis were a tribute, the players loved them and the team throttled Marshall.  Maybe you couldn't tell from wherever you were during the game, but they looked really nice tonight inside Peden.  I haven't seen Peden that electric since the Pitt game.
